What am I misinterpreting? They deliberately build small isolated communities that resemble compounds. Now they won't dismantle a wall built specifically to keep Palestinians from moving around so that these communities are "safe." This is going on in the West Bank which is supposed to be Palestinian territory. Even if it is done as reprisal to attacks you can't justify it and nothing will be solved.
What part have I gotten wrong? Is something else going on, have I been reading fiction? Of course the people who blow themselves up are horrible but you can't do this to people.
